Hi Peter,

I think that you are being treated very unfairly. I think simple justice
requires that you get a large share (in the tens of percent,assuming that
you were the main inventor) of the royalties and additional profit. I
realize that most companies probably don't do this,but I feel that they
should. It not only is right,but makes good business sense,i.e. every good
inventor will want to come work for them.
